Linda has been sculpting wool, both wet and dry, for the past 10 years.
Linda found her way to feltmaking in the mid ’90’s and thanks Beth
Beede for the introduction to mask making. Feltmaking provides the
perfect medium to sculpt one of a kind wearable masks.
Linda is able to transform the soft wool into a substantial firm wool
felt with incredible dimension. She has explored many techniques in attachments and layering to create her one-of-a-kind mask faces. Linda’s masks have been shown in galleries by invitation throughout the United States. Her “OSCAR” (center image above) was privileged to be on the home page of International Feltmakers Association for 2004.
Linda travels with her masks throughout the United States, speaking
about mask making and teaching classes in sculpting wool. Her talents are not limited to masks; she concentrates on 3-d "containers," wearable and non, to include hats, slippers and boots, and
ornamental works.
